As far back as December 2009, the National Farmers Union president Mr. Terry Boehm, who had testified at committee in support of Bill C-474, continued to express concerns about the economic impacts on the agricultural market economy, absent careful advance assessment of the potentially detrimental impacts of genetically modified varieties contaminating crops.

Chapter 6 focused on the environmental risks, looking at micro-organisms and soil, genetically modified plants and their environmental ecological effects, the impacts upon insects—the entomological risks—and then there is a special section on genetically modified fish and their environmental impacts, because of what, as I previously mentioned, the panel judged to be the importance and immediacy of this issue.

Second, we recommend that the senate committee ask the government to introduce market impact analysis to the approval process for genetically modified crops, including genetically modified wheat, and that relevant government departments be directed to examine thoroughly all options to consider market impact.
